"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
Did you take a look at that video I sent you? I thought it would give you a little taste of what our Wednesday night OPEN MICS are like here in Philly.
Actually each of our South Street Open Mics are different, but they are all a lot of fun & entertaining. The Wednesday nights at Blue Bananas Cafe (Caribbean restaurant w/ addictive Jamaican rum punch!) seem to draw the widest variety of performers, which I really enjoy.
stay in touch! Dave Simons
PS. just listened to "Magic" & "Again" -- both are very seductive in their own way. Your style is so personal, yet universally introspective. I love it!
All new recordings of "Don't get your monkey drunk", "Sarah's song" and "The Jellyfish song"!!!!!!! Please have a listen and let me know what you think (if you have time). loves ya ukemonkey x
You're on the East Coast? If you have a chance to stop over in Philly, please let me know. I live in the downtown Center City area, and my Open Mics are on South Street every Monday & Tuesday nights. I'd love it if you stopped by!
If you think you can make to Philly, send me a myspace "message" & I'll send you my cell phone number.
Please check out our new comedic “vampire bankers” music video. The guy who directed this also directed Madonna’s first music vid. We think it’s pretty funny. It’s available as a free mp3 download on http://www.ukejackson.com
Thanks for being our friend!
Happy Tax Day! Uke Jackson and the NY Ukulele Ensemble
